About this file

This document is a Responsible Vendor Review Form required by the City of Tallahassee for vendors responding to the Substation Battery Replacement solicitation in Florida. The form serves as a responsibility determination tool to ensure vendors possess the capability and integrity to perform contract requirements. Vendors must respond to eight yes/no questions covering actions within the past ten years in Florida or any state or federal jurisdiction, including revocation or suspension of licenses, debarment from government contracting, termination of government contracts for cause, criminal convictions related to contracting, civil fraud judgments, and governmental investigations. Additionally, vendors must confirm they possess the necessary organization, experience, accounting controls, and technical skills to meet contract obligations. The project involves replacing several 125VDC nicad substation battery strings with approximately two battery banks replaced annually over a three to five year period, with factory commissioning prior to shipment to the Utility Supply Center at 2641 Municipal Way, Tallahassee, Florida. The scope includes replacement of battery hardware and connection cables, replacement of non-seismic battery racks, and recycling of existing 94-cell battery banks, with the initial bid based on two battery banks.

Vendors must provide detailed explanations and supporting documentation for any affirmative responses to questions 1.1 through 1.8, recognizing that such responses do not automatically disqualify participation but failure to provide requested information may result in disqualification. The City of Tallahassee will evaluate vendor responsibility using information submitted in the form, financial data and other solicitation materials provided by the vendor, and independent research including review of the System for Award Management database. Vendors must immediately notify the Procurement Officer of any erroneous or changed information prior to contract execution. Delivery requirements specify Monday through Friday between 9:00 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. at the designated facility. Vendors are also asked to disclose active State Term Contracts or GSA Contracts with similar scope of services.

A contract can only be awarded to a “responsible vendor”. A responsible vendor has the capability in all respects to fully perform the contract requirements and the integrity and reliability that will assure good faith performance.

To assist in making this determination, Vendors responding to this Solicitation are required to fully and accurately answer each of the questions below. For each “Yes” answer to questions 1.1 through 1.8, Vendor must provide a detailed explanation and attach copies of any relevant document cited in the explanation. Answering “Yes” to questions 1.1 through 1.8 will not necessarily disqualify a Vendor from participating in this Solicitation. However, failure to provide additional information as requested by the City of Tallahassee may disqualify a Vendor.

The City of Tallahassee (COT) will base its determination of a Vendor’s responsibility on: (a) information provided by Vendor in response to this form; (b) information provided elsewhere in a Vendor’s response to the Solicitation (including financial information) and (c) information obtained from independent research (including information COT obtains from the internet or third parties, including System for Award Management (SAM)).
